You do have another option: Change email programs. Or lean on whoever is in charge of this one, saying that it's failing in a significant way. Also, what security do your sysadmins gain by lying about mail clients? Stripping the header would gain just as much. Lying just makes your network uncooperative at best, and possibly will be seen as malicious. If you're using a mail client with known vulnerabilities, *FIX THAT*, don't try to hide behind a fallacious header. Otherwise it's not security, it's laziness.
